The Lowdown
Alright folks, Rusty here. Let’s take a good hard look at what’s on offer for Hof Maravi over the next couple of weeks. I’ve got to be straight with you from the start: it’s a grim outlook. This stretch is looking like a total write-off for decent waves. We’re staring down a barren run that kicks off now and doesn't let up for the whole 16-day window. Honestly, for this area, that’s not totally unheard of – sometimes it just flat-lines.
Looking at the data, the surf never gets out of the diapers. The best the combined swell energy manages is a weak 70 (moderate cross-onshore and choppy) on the afternoon of Sunday the 6th, but it’s still only 3ft of weak, short-period, 7-second wind swell from the WNW. And the wind? Onshore or cross-onshore pretty much every single day. It’s a mess.
There is one little blip you might want to pencil in, but keep your expectations in the gutter. On the morning of Monday the 7th, we get glassy conditions with a light breeze out of the SW, but the swell is a pathetic 2ft with a period of 6 seconds – not enough to push a sea lion off a sandbar. Combine that with the water temp anomaly being a touch warmer than normal at 85°F, it’s a nice day for a float, not a surf.
Honestly, the only thing approaching a standout would be the mornings of September 8th and September 13th. On Tuesday the 8th, we have a glassy morning with no wind and 2ft of swell. On Sunday the 13th, there's another glassy dawn with 1ft. The energy is weak (37 and 13 respectively). These are your best shots, but that’s like saying a flat Coke is the best drink in the fridge. For an absolute beginner at Hof Maravi, a knee-high glassy day might be worth a session on a foamy, but for anyone else, keep the board in the bag.
Given the persistent weak swell and onshore winds, if you’re really desperate for a pull, this setup is actually more interesting for a kite surfer looking for some flat-water freestyle than a paddle surfer. There’s just no power to work with.
Hang in there. Forecasts change, but this one is looking like a long, quiet spell.
Rusty.

Information about the Hof Maravi Surf forecast
The above surf forecast table for Hof Maravi provides essential information for determining whether the surfing conditions will be good over the next 16 days. A general guide to surfing at Hof Maravi can be found by selecting the local surf guide option on the grey menu. Our Hof Maravi surf forecast is unique since it includes wave energy (power) that defines the real feel of the surf rather than just the height or the period. If you surf the same spot (Hof Maravi) regularly then make a mental note of the wave energy from the surf forecast table each time you go. Very soon you may start to choose your surf days based on the wave energy alone combined with our forecast of favourable offshore wind conditions. Our star ratings will help here and of course you will also find the usual wave height and period predictions on our surf forecasts as well as a full break down of the swell components under our advanced users option (to reveal that, click the little Einstein character under the tide times).
Further information to help with frequently asked questions about our surf forecast for Hof Maravi may be found under the help tab on the top menu and also by moving your mouse over the question marks on the surf forecast table itself. Please always bear in mind that the forecast is for near-shore open water and local factors at each surf break influence the actual breaking wave height, such as the beach / reef profile, water depths offshore and shelter.
